Manship Endowed Lecture to the College of Art & Design on Monday\, January 27 at 5 p.m. in 130 West Howe-Russell Hall.\nBethany Collins (American\, b.1984) is a multidisciplinary artist whose conceptually driven work is fueled by a critical exploration of how race and language interact. In her Contranyms series\, for instance\, Collins transposes definitions from Webster’s New World Dictionary of American Language onto American Masters paper\, then aggressively obscures much of the entries with an eraser. What remain are specific snippets of meaning that are poetically charged through their isolation\, as well as the crumbled paper bits left behind by her erasing. As Holland Cotter noted writing in The New York Times\, “language itself\, viewed as intrinsically racialized\, is Bethany Collins’s primary material.” \nBethany Collins’s works have been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions nationwide\, including the Studio Museum in Harlem\, the High Museum of Art\, the Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia\, and the Birmingham Museum of Art. Collins has been recognized as an Artist-in-Residence at the Studio Museum in Harlem and was awarded the Hudgens Prize in 2015.
